Two New Vocabulary Words



Développé: (Barre Exercise) This movment is done with the leg if first lifted to Retiré position (The working leg is raised to the side, turned out, with knee sharply bent so the toe is pointed in front of or behind the supporting knee. Common pose during standard pirouette, intermediate position for other moves. Term is interchangeable with 'passe') Then the leg is fully extended passing through attitude position. This move can be done to the front (en avant) to the side (a la seconde), or to the back (derriere) 



éveloppé: (Barre Exercise) This is the oposite of Développé. The Leg (in the air) comes through attitude position down through retire position and placed back on the floor. This can also be done to the front, side, and back.
